There is an unkempt skuzz to the non-stop, sonic excitement Pujol dish out in our latest concert video. It doesn't take long to unfold (the full set is all of 17 minutes), but this cast of Southern misfits slam their punk-inspired riff rock straight into the gutter. Wailing vocals, thrilling guitar theatrics, the steady rhythmic crash of cymbals, drums, and a big ole bass; it all flops around at once, a messy glob of sweat and swagger that we think you're absolutely going to love. So raise your glass, throw it back, fill it right back up, and slam it home again. We think it's what Pujol would want.

Artist Bio

Namesake frontman Daniel Pujol lives in a strange world, all the time. Whether in college, on tour, in between jobs, or writing a record, he is getting by and getting weird in Nashville, Tennessee.

PUJOL arose from the ashes of MEEMAW in 2009 to carry on the Nashvillian ideals of DIY and self construction through adeptly crafted songs based firmly in meaningful lyrical content. Its these motives and songs that have taken PUJOL from the basements of Middle Tennessee to stages across the country and have garnered notice from more than just those with their ear to the ground.

Releasing a plethora of singles and cassettes over the past two years on Jack Whites Third Man Records, Nashvilles Infinity Cat Recordings and Turbo Time Records among others, PUJOL has now partnered with Omahas Saddle Creek. Following the critically praised Nasty, Brutish, and Short EP from last year, PUJOL finally has an official debut full-length ready for unveiling. UNITED STATES OF BEING continues on with PUJOLs doctrine of trying hard everyday and ventures lyrically to a place that most contemporaries fail to reach. Addressing the current status of twenty-somethings in Americas present and capturing their shared dispositions, the album throws the brakes on catharsis, and begs the listener to decide for themselves how to answer the robots last question, What is love? With riff-oriented guitar playing reminiscent of greats like The Replacements and Beetlejuice-esque earworms, PUJOL now sits atop the fringes of the rock and roll and DIY vernacular.

Whether this strange world chooses to embrace PUJOL is of no matter, as the prolific frontman will continue to carry on as always Taking Care of Business 24/7. The adrenalized, infectious debut full-length, UNITED STATES OF BEING, is out now on Saddle Creek.
